Sonia and I’m a licensed scientific psychologist with over 10 years of experience working with individuals with a variety of psychological health conditions I see myself as a strong CBT therapist and think that has a great deal of value for helping individuals fighting with anxiety depression life stressor type concerns therefore I actually wish to help you comprehend a bit more about it and how it works today so what is cognitive behavioral therapy or CBT anyway so what CBT actually is is it’s a method a theoretical technique where a therapist will
work with you to analyze your thoughts sensations and behaviors and the different methods they converge and really what they’re going to be aiming to do is look at how your ideas might be adding to challenging feelings so are your ideas assisting to sustain a level of anger or sadness or fear and are there ways that perhaps you can think of circumstances or people or yourself in a different way in order to feel a little bit better so if you’re considering counseling I highly encourage you to check out working with a CBT therapist since it’s a efficient and evidence-based method of dealing with a range of issues and issues if you’re dealing with the CBT therapist you’re going to discover that the work is really collaborative and it’s actually a team approach to analyzing the problems that you battle with the other thing that individuals have maybe a little bit of trouble getting utilized to or accepting with CBT therapy is that you will get research yes it’s just like being back in school therefore a great
CBT therapist is going to appoint you some type of action item or homework task to finish in between sessions and the reason for this is actually to help you practice the abilities and techniques that your in session out of session and you will find that you will advance much more rapidly through the treatment procedure if you do your research sort of just like in school so a couple of other things to learn about cognitive behavioral therapy are that it’s normally a more structured technique than other kinds of therapies and it involves determining goals that you and the therapist accept work with on together and the other key point is that in CBT treatment the therapist actually solicits and welcomes feedback on how things are going so this goes back to the concept that it’s a very collective method and it’s not this
idea of the counselor having more understanding than you but simply that the therapist has knowledge in different areas that they can bring to bear and maybe provide you different methods of thinking about your issues one of the more common misunderstandings about CBT is that c.b.c therapists will not take a look at your past at all or examine how your past might be affecting your present which’s in fact not true in CBT the focus is absolutely more on the present and how you’re working in today however to see a good CBT therapist will work with you on examining if there are any problems in your past that are still impacting your ability to operate successfully and successfully today if you like this video please feel free to sign up for our YouTube channel where you’ll discover a lot more content on a variety of mental health subjects and if you’re interested in finding out more about online counseling Working For Betterhelp
